We investigated whether ${\beta}$-galactosidase (${\beta}$-gal)-containing Escherichia coli cells could transfer a galactose to 2-phenoxyethanol, resulting in 2-phenoxyethanol galactoside (PE-Gal). PE-Gal was confirmed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. In addition, we also confirmed that a galactose molecule was covalently bonded with PE during thin-layer chromatography analysis of the ${\beta}$-gal hydrolysate of PE-Gal. The yield for PE-Gal synthesis was about 37.5% (weight basis), which was about 7-8 times greater than that of a previous report. In addition, the concentration of ${\beta}$-gal (0.96 U/ml) used in this PE-Gal synthesis was about 20 times less than that in a previous report.

Enterobacter sp. producing -$\beta$-galactosidase with high transgalactosylation activity was isolated from dairy wastewater. The isolate had common biochemical features to E. aerogenes and E. cloacae. Enzyme production increased as the cell mass increased with optimum enzyme activity of 0.21 Unit/mg-protein (o-nitro-phenyl-$\beta$ -D-galactoside (ONPG) as substrate) until 8 hr of culture. Whole cells permeabilized by toluene were used to produce galacto-oligosaccharide. Optimum toluene concentration, temperature and pH for -$\beta$-galactosidase activity of permeabilized whole cells were 10% (v/v), $50^{\circ}C$ and 6.0, respectively. A maximum of 38% (w/w) of galacto-oligosaccharide was obtained with lactose concentration of 20% (w/w) at $40^\{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0.

The effects of various nitrogen soruces on the expression of nif gene were investigated using nif-lac fusants of Klebsiella pneumoniae. K. pneumoniae UK 2979 was infected with Mudl lysate prepared by heat induction of K. pneumoniae UK 4482. About 80 nif-lac fusants were greatly repressed. Amino acids, such as serine, glutamine and asparagine, were found to support the growth of K. pneumoniae M5al quite well, and showed a repressive effect on .betha.-galactosidase activities of nif-lac fusants LX-9 and LX-22 in NFHM. Glutamic acid, histidine and arginine rendered poor growth but high activities of .betha.-galactosidase. Good cell growth and high enzyme activity were observed when complex nitrogen sources, such as casitone, proteose pepone, were employed. .betha.-Galactosidase activities of LX-9 and LX-22 in nitrogen free minimal medium increased sharply within first 4 hours.

본 연구는 식물성 에스트로겐인 isoflavone 배당체의 ${\beta}-1,4\;glycoside$ 결합을 ${\beta}-galactosidase$로 분해하여 그 생리적 작용이 더욱 효과적인 aglycone화 하기 위한 조건을 연구하여 기능성식품개발에 응용토록 하는데 목적이 있다. 실험 결과, 모든 ${\beta}-galactosidase$가 ${\beta}-1,4\;glycoside$ 결합의 분해력이 인정되지는 않았으며, 분해 가능성이 인정된 효소를 선택하여 실험한 결과 효소의 함량이 증가함에 따라 aglycone의 성분비율이 증대된 반면, 그 손실률 또한 증대되었고 배양시간이 길수록 aglycone의 성분비율이 증가하였으나 배양초기에 급격한 증가율을 보였으며, pH6과 7, 8에서 유사한 정도의 증가율을 보였고, 온도가 증가함에 따라 aglycone 성분비율이 증가되었지만 $40^{\circ}C$이상에서는 그 손실률이 크게 증가하였다. 결과적으로 판단해 볼 때, isoflavone을 aglycone화 하는데 있어 인체 내 유사조건에서 aglycone의 증가율이 높았으며 최적의 조건과 많은 차이를 나타내지 않았고 그 손실률 또한 최소화된 결과를 나타내어 isofalvone을 적용한 기능성 유제품을 연구하는데 있어 긍정적인 가능성을 보였다.

Amylase, protease, polygalacturonase and $\beta$-galactosidase activities were monitored during salting of Chinese cabbage and kimchi fermentation at 1$0^{\circ}C$. A part of enzymes in the tissue of Chinese cabbage were eluted during salting, and other remained enzymes activities were decreased in proportion to the amount of elution. But total enzyme activities were increased during salting. Amylase, protease and polygalacturonase activities decreased at the early fermentation stage but increased at the late fermentation stage. $\beta$-Galactosidase activity was continuously increased during all periods of fermentation. Enzymic actions at the early fermentation stage come from Chinese cabbge and at the late fermentation stage come from major microorganisms in kimchi fermentation. Kimchi fermentation involves the activation of the enzymes by salting; hydrolysis of micromoleculars such as polysaccarides cell wall composed polysaccarides and proteins of cell wall during early fermentation of kimchi; overripening of the kimchi caused by propagation of homofermentative lactic acid bacteria which demand autotroph.

본 연구는 ${\beta}-galactosidase$와 phytase활성이 높은 균주의 선발을 목적으로 수각 미생물들을 Kefir와 자연환경에서 분리하여 효소활성을 측정하였다. 배양한 유산균과 효모 균체액을 French pressure cell press로 세포를 파쇄하였을 때, 각 미생물의 단백질농도는 효모보다 유산균이 높은 것으로 나타났다. ${\beta}-galcactosidase$의 비활성은 Kluyveromyces maxiranus와 Candida utilis를 제외하고는 대부분 $0.80{\sim}0.89\;umol/min/mg$ 사이였다. 체적활성의 경우는 Lactobacillus paracasei 및 Lactobacillus rahmnosus, Enterococcus faecium이 각각 15.9 및 14.5, 14.5 umol/ml를 기록하여 ${\beta}-galcactosidase$의 추출재료로 우수하였다. phytase의 비활성은 Lactobacillus paracasei 와 Enterococcus faecium이 0.032와 0.038 umol/min/mg로 가장 높았다. 체적활성의 경우는 Lactobacillus paracasei가 35.12 umol/ml로 가장 높았다. 결론적으로 ${\beta}-galactosidase$와 phytase의 생산측면에서 이용한 미생물중에서는 Lactobacillus paracasei가 가장 우수한 것으로 사료되었다.

A strain of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YS-309 has been isolated from domestic soil. It belongs to genus Bacillus from its morphological and biochemical characteristics. The strain grows better in the alkaline media rather than in the neutral media. The optimum pH and temperature for growth were observed at 8.5 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. Glucose, lactose and maltose were appeared as good carbon source but soluble starch and fructose were utilized uneffectively for growth. Concentrations of lactose had affected both the cellular growth and the enzyme productions. The maximum growth and the highest enzyme productions were obtained at 0.5%(w/e) of lactose added in the media. B-Galactosidase from Bacillus sp. YS-309 was produced inducibly into the cell and total enzyme activities per ml were gradually decreased when the concentration of glucose increased.

Galactose joined to glucose by a $\beta(1\rightarrow4)$ glycosidic bond makes lactose and this disaccharide is rich in milk. It is known that lacotse is hydrolyzed to each monomeric sugar by either lactase in human or $\beta-galactosidase$ in bacteria. Ingestion of milk by lactase-deficient persons causes a temporary diarrhea and subsequent chronic diarrhea results in colitis with chronic inflammation. We isolated a $\beta-galactosidase$ producing psycrotolerant strain AS-20 from near cattle shed and investigated the growth at various temperature conditions. Whereas Escherichia coli strains did not grow at $10^{\circ}C$, the AS-20 strain could grow well at this low temperature and showed optimal growth at $30^{\circ}C$. The isolated strain was identified as 97% Hafnia alvei by biochemical properties. This strain could ferment glucose, lacotse, maltose, mannitol, xylose, ONPG, rhamanose and L-arabinose, and decarboxylate lysin and ornithine. To confirm the identity of isolated strain we amplified 16S rDNA by PCR and searched similarity of the 1426 bp DNA sequcence with Genbank database. The strain AS-20 showed 99% similarity with Hafnia alvei. The activity of $\beta-galactosidase$ was 1.5 times higher when the cell was grown at 10 or $20^{\circ}C$ than at $30^{\circ}C$. The highest enzyme activity of AS-20 was also much higher than that of E. coli, which was grown at $30^{\circ}C$.

A new lactococcal shuttle/expression vector for lactococci, pWgal13T, was constructed using a $\beta$-galactosi-dase gene (lacZ) from Lacfococcus lactis ssp. lactis ATCC 7962 as a screening marker. The pWgal 13T was introduced into Escherichia coli DH5a and L. lactis MG1363, and was easily detected by the formation of blue colonies on a medium containing X-gal without any false transformants. Also, the quantitatively lacZ activity of pWgal13T was measured in L. lactis ssp. cremoris MG1363, and was found to be four times higher than that of L. lactis ssp. lactis ATCC7962 grown on a medium containing glucose, which shows that the lacZ gene of pWgal13T can be used for the efficient screening of L. lactis on general media. The pWgal13T was equipped with a lactococcal replicon of pWV01 from L. lactis Wg2, the new promoter P13C from L. lactis ssp. cremoris LM0230, multiple cloning sites, and a terminator for the expression of a relevant gene. The vee-tor pWgal13T was used for the expression of the EGFP gene in E. coli and L. lactis. These results show that the lactococcal expression/shuttle vector constructed in the present study can be used for the production of foreign proteins in E. coli and L. lactis.
